Life for most of us is easy, it's bad attitudes that make it difficult.

Worry about the things that directly affect you and your loved ones and then only worry about the ones you have control over. The rest, just keep in mind.

No matter who you vote for the !@#$%^&* government always wins. :D

As a man with scarcely an original thought, and an education better than I deserve, my life is sadly a series of quotes and analogies:

Sadly, as a man of poor memory, but better rememberence, some of these quotes may be either misquoted or not prequoted...

Of the most useful (or at least, most quoted):

"Always look on the bright side" - two crucifixees, in Life of Brian

"Walk away from trouble, if you can" Kenny Rogers, Coward of the County

""I'll tell you this..." Rab C Nesbitt, every week

"Is it?" - Our Safety Manager

"Never Surrender, Never Give In, Never Let the Enemy Win" - Blitz (I think, from the cover art, they were an '80s skinhead band).

We can all learn a lot (obviously, except for those of us that know it all) from many sources; sadly, we don;t always learn wisely or the truth....

My life has been .... tainted - enhanced - exagerrated - blighted - whatever - by Davros, father of the daleks, when imagining holding some doomsday weapon, saying "Yes, yes, I would do it!", whether it be hitch-hiking to Sacramento, waching the Calcutta Cup in Manila.

I've got another rant on sport, as well, but I;ll save that for later...

Measure once, fold once - you might still be growing...

I looked through the "analects of confucius" for the meaning of the ancient chinese proverb, and apart from the "anal" in the title, there is no mention of bums, itchy or otherwise. So I think i may have been mislead. Unless the quote is from another dynasty.:P

Measure twice, cut once? Yeah, it should be, but how often does that happen?:D

Another ancient chinese proverb. "Need sleep, turn off computer" ( I think I just made that up)
